Mine is the name of my current LARP character, which, in turn, was inspired by "The Adventures of Luther Arkwright" (I deliberately spelled Arkright incorrectly for my character, as a nod to the flexible spellings of the medieval period).I love it - Elite Dangerous - the game of middle aged nerds
I'm always too lazy to come up with a flashy username, so I always use my first name (Uli) combinded with an activity you do in the game. The last time I tried to generate a fancy username I was always called a fruit even though I didn't intend to.
My forum name is the family friendly version of one of my real-life nicknames, which you can see in my signature.
I can't remember exactly where it came from, but it was from my sister after/during a string of practical jokes.

I'd say I surprised, but that would be a lie.
Buttock Chapeau?
My forum and in game name is the password from the game "haunted house" from the 1980's Usborne type in book "write your own adventure programs".
The actual password is xzanfar but I misspelt it when typing in the game and never got past that bit!
The books are all free downloads with the one in question here
You can play the game here if you can't be bothered to type it in to your home computer.

Mine is just borrowed from a Stargate colonel who had the galls to go down in flame with a Prometheus class cruiser trying to defend a whole planet...
How dare they.
How very dare they indeed!
Shame because Amy Pedergast is just a cool name!

How's about a Flapjack Fedora?
Here it spawned in Lord of the Rings Online where I started pvp with a warg called Fishbone. Later went on to make an Uruk called Fishburz. At that point, I was known as Fish/Fishy amongst our little Laurelin monster crowd. Then made more characters with fish-puns, such as the Weaver Fishfilleth or the Defiler Fishmongburz, and ended up keeping the name as my general internet persona.
Since Fish/Fishy isn't exactly uncommon though, I turn it into FishMcCool here and there. It's pretty unique as far as I know, and is a stupid pun on irish folk hero Fionn mac Cumhaill, often anglicised as Finn McCool, who, as part of his legend, became accidentally super wise by eating some fat dripping from the famed salmon of knowledge. Multilayered fish pun!
